Hotel seafood buffet lobangs for the hungry
As a seafood lover, I find myself salivating whenever thoughts of snow crab, poached prawns, and fresh oysters enter my mind. But these images in my head are almost always followed by the reality hit of exorbitant price tags that come with fresh seafood. If you’re a sucker for seafood as well, here’s a lobang that can lessen the burden on your wallet whenever you’re up for a seafood feast.
Eatigo offers discounts of up to 50% at over 300 restaurants in Singapore when you make a reservation via their website or free smartphone app. The discount depends on the date and time your booking is made for, and higher discounts are given during off-peak hours.

Liang Court has always been my number one go-to for Japanese food, and I admit I have never ventured out of the basement and ground levels, where the ramen and udon shops are. It is only recently that I realised I have been missing out on the lunch and dinner buffets available at The Square, which is on the seventh floor of the hotel right beside it. Among the various cuisines served are seafood dishes such as seafood salad, salted egg prawns, and snapper with caper sauce. Of course, there is also an array of raw seafood including clams, mussels, and sashimi.
